Emerging as a true mermaid of summer fashion, Halle Bailey, star of "The Little Mermaid," graces the captivating underwater tableau of V Magazine's Summer 2023 edition. Photographer Rob Rusling captures the enchanting spectacle, showcasing Bailey adorned in a stunning Fendi Haute Couture creation, further embellished with exquisite pieces from Bulgari's jewelry collection.

This extraordinary underwater-inspired cover story transports Bailey into a realm of haute couture, featuring designs from renowned fashion houses such as Armani Privé, Miss Sohee, Christian Dior, Valentino, Jean Paul Gaultier, Schiaparelli, and Chanel. Curated by stylist Anna Trevelyan, these opulent pieces harmoniously merge with state-of-the-art AI technology and photography, delivering an otherworldly and mesmerizing visual experience.

The incredible styling is complemented by the artistry of Tinisha Meeks, who creates stunning hair looks, while Christiana Cassell works her magic with makeup. Thuy Nguyen adds the finishing touch with impeccable manicure artistry. The ethereal aesthetic is further elevated by Olivia Giles' captivating set design and Johnny Pascucci's meticulous production.

In an exclusive interview with V Magazine, Bailey shares her remarkable journey from the audition process to filming the highly anticipated live-action remake of Disney's "The Little Mermaid." She reveals that auditioning for the role of Ariel was her first for a leading role in a major film. Despite her initial nervousness, Bailey's performance moved the audition panel to tears, leading to subsequent auditions, a screen test, and ultimately, securing the role of Ariel.

Bailey's path to becoming Ariel was not without challenges. She relocated to London for filming, coinciding with the onset of the pandemic. This meant being separated from her family and navigating this new experience on her own. However, this isolation allowed Bailey to connect with Ariel's emotions of being in a new place and yearning for something more. It also empowered her to discover her strength as an individual and a young woman embarking on her own journey.

The filming process proved to be a transformative learning experience for Bailey. Inspired by co-stars like Melissa McCarthy, who fearlessly commanded the set, Bailey learned to assert herself and find her voice. Additionally, portraying Ariel, who loses her voice, taught her the importance of patience and the power of nonverbal communication through facial expressions.

Bailey firmly believes that the movie carries universal lessons for both children and adults alike. It serves as a poignant reminder to pursue dreams and passions, especially when one feels a calling to something greater. For Bailey, the filming process became a personal voyage of self-discovery and growth, and she hopes that audiences will find inspiration in Ariel's story, just as she did.
